Jandek at UNC, Sunday Night

Feb 20 2009, Written by Andrew Hibbard in Concert,Music,Playground, 1 Comments

After three decades of releasing music, five of recording and about 40 shows, Texas-based Jandek will be gracing Triangle audiences with his music. Joining him on keyboard will be the Mountain Goats’ John Darnielle, drummer Brian Jones and Cantwell, Gomez and Jordan’s Anne Gomez on bass.

I can’t say much about his performance, but because this is such a rare opportunity, it would certainly be a shame to miss out on it. For a video of Jandek performing, click here.

If you’re not watching the Oscars (because you probably won’t be, especially with our LIVE BLOG to fill you in), you should be at UNC’s Gerrard Hall at 7:30 p.m. for Jandek. For tickets ($20 advance, $22 day-of), click here.

For more info on Jandek, check out Grayson Currin’s promo interview with John Darnielle at the Indy Weekly online. Bull City Records’ Chaz Martinstein also has an excellent post about it over at his blog, WNn’G.
